Auxillary Belt Change....VALVER

[afrank]

I need to change the auxillary/pas belt on my valver, is it an easy job for a novice? I know that the headlight will have to come out. Can anyone give me any tips?? Cheers Alan

its a fiddle! as is everything!

need a 7mm allen key bit, but it has to be really thin/small! i taped one into a spanner, you undo the little bit in the middle of the tensioner pully, then get a spanner and undo the big bolt(which i cant remember how big) which loosens it off, then squeeze out the belt,

and in typical haynes fashion, fitting is the reverse of removal!

Nice one, cheers. Might as well do it myself as everything I ask the garage to do they feck up!!!

its a 21mm, i take my bonnet off when doing it, makes life easier, its an easy but well fiddly job.
